Grades 9-12: Students design and optimize various anchor systems to support a “climber” represented by a 10 N weight.
PHYSICAL SCIENCES (Grades 9-12)
When rock climbing, anchors are used to guide and support a rope attached to the climber. It is critical to set up anchors so that in the event of a fall, the forces generated on the anchor will not cause it to fail. Students design and optimize various anchor systems to support a “climber” represented by a 10 N weight.
